my chin up to the sill
tippy-toed
tippy-toed
Her brown coat matches her fuzzy ankle boots
her fancy scarf jiggles around her head
in the snowy breeze
she’s my mom
I love her
her fancy scarf jiggles around her head
in the snowy breeze
she’s my mom
I love her
The cattle see her coming
their breath steams
in the winter air
their brown and white bodies lumber to the pond
their breath steams
in the winter air
their brown and white bodies lumber to the pond
She takes the shovel
starts a watery hole
they take turns
curly white faces dipping
starts a watery hole
they take turns
curly white faces dipping
Gloved hands are turning and waving now
my face curls up
she’s my mom
I love her
my face curls up
she’s my mom
I love her
